Getting your green card insurance easily and quickly

The green card insurance is a 15-day third-party insurance, which you can apply for based on the license plate. After these 15 days, the coverage expires automatically. Please note; under the WA coverage, damage to third parties is insured, but damage to your own vehicle is not.

You can apply for this insurance quickly and easily online via our website and pay the premium via iDEAL, so that you will receive the international insurance certificate (the green card) quickly. If you want an e-mail with payment instructions, this is of course also possible, but keep in mind that it takes longer for the green card to be sent.

Alpina issues the green card as soon as the premium is received. The green card is then immediately sent by e-mail and the next business day it is sent by mail. Once the green card insurance has taken effect (the effective date can be found on the green card) it can no longer be cancelled, however before that, i.e. before the effective date, it can still be cancelled if necessary.

Unfortunately, we cannot apply for an export license plate for you.

Through us, you will receive the green card via email and by mail. We advise you not to start driving the vehicle until you have received the green card by mail. If this is not possible, you can print the green card we sent by e-mail yourself. We do recommend that you do this on "green card paper" (available at bookstores) or other green paper.

With a certificate of insurance on white paper, foreign customs officials may sometimes not recognize it as a certificate of insurance because it is traditionally green. If this is the case, you can indicate that it is indeed an internationally recognized proof of insurance and possibly ask for another official who may be familiar with current laws and regulations. Make a note of the name of the official(s) so that once back home you or your legal assistance insurer can initiate legal action against the foreign authorities should they oblige you to incur additional costs in insuring your vehicle.

With the 15-day temporary insurance, you have coverage in Europe.

Alpina issues a green card with the 15-day temporary car insurance policy. After those 15 days, coverage automatically expires. Note! The insurance does not cover damage to your own vehicle.

It is possible to purchase your temporary car insurance directly online. Upon receipt of payment, you will receive the insurance certificate by e-mail. We do not accept cash payments.

You can pay the premium directly via ideal.

Temporary insurance is available not only for cars but also for vans, trucks and motor homes.

The insurance can be cancelled up to the effective date of the coverage provided this is on a business day and is communicated before 17:00. Once the policyholder has or has enjoyed coverage, this green card cannot be cancelled through the right of withdrawal.
